Veterans at Macon, GR.
CHIcAGo, October GA Neps Ma
con, Ca, special says: Yesterday was
"Confederacy Day" in Macon, and
the special feature OF the occasion was
a review OF Confederate veterans by
their old President. The procession
was to have marched by Davis in re-
view, but when the procession was
opposite Davis the veterans broke
ranks and swarmed about their chief.
The police endeavored to keep them
back, but they shouted "All the po-
licemcn of Georgia couldn't prevent
us from shaking hands with jeff Da-
Wis" The enthusiasm
REACHED IT'S CLIMAX
When some one handed Confeder-
ate battle-fag to Davis, who grasped
the tatters of the flag and pressed
them to his lips. The air was full of
such expressions as ''God bless jeff
Davis!" "God bless the fag!'' and
the entire multitude was in tears.
Mrs. Davis and children kissed the
flag, and with each kiss 5000 huzzas
went up. When the flag was handed
back to tho multitude the men
snatched all the available tatters and
pressed them warmly to their lips.
Pretty soon Davis arose and said:
FRIENDS AND BRoTHERs-I am
like that old fag-tattered and torn by
ste rms and years. love it as me-
mento OF what your fathers did and
what I hoped you would do. l will
